Scratch

Here you will find older scratches, musings and other detritus that once were located on the front pages, but have now faded.

Filed away here to collect dust and cobwwwebs in perpetuity, links may break, facts may change and data may corrupt.

On occasion I may come down here to tidy, but for the most, I prefer to leave the past where it lies.

 

Sin City: Hell And Back by Frank Miller

Sin City: Hell And Back

Frank Miller

4 out of 5 stars


WHERE AM I?

WHERE AM I?


OH, GOD.WHERE AM I?

As of writing, the final Sin City book sees a departure from the well known characters of previous books, and introduces us to Wallace an artist/war hero/short order cook who saves a suicidal woman named Esther who is subsequentially kidnapped.

This is noticeable for having the only completely coloured sections of any of the Sin City books, which Miller fills with the things he likes drawing - dinosaurs, cherubs and other pop culture icons such as an ED-209 droid from the Robocop movies, Captain America, Dirty Harry, Rambo, Hagar the Horrible and even Hellboy amongst others,

Perhaps not the strongest, but certainly the surrealist of all the series to date, but certainly worth a read.
